New EA Rear Calipers. Where From?
It would seem that the beetle rear disc brake conversion of choice at the moment is EA Falcon Rear Brakes.
I've bought a few sets from a wrecker and they are stuffed. I'm sick of paying money for parts I can't use. So...
Is there anywhere I can buy new PBR EA Falcon rear calipers from? And where do I get the best price.
Thanks

Got mine from Autopro-$138 each. The Brake place here wanted $185 each.Part No.for the R.H one is DB1508-have thrown out the box for the LH one.

Bought new original hoses as well-these were a bit over $30 each. Cut the original brackets for the hoses off the Ford dust shield and welded to the
VW trailing arm- can use the Ford retaining clips.
